No-Peel Primer Dark Yellow No.10

No-Peel Primer Dark Yellow No.10, 30 ml (VMS, part number VMS.PR10S)

A water-thinnable acrylic primer from the No-Peel line, that is an undercoat, not a topcoat and not a kit. It is supplied thinned ready to spray and the bottle holds 30 ml. The name of the line points to its main property: according to the manufacturer the primer has adhesion on a par with solvent-based undercoats, so it does not peel off during masking or handling, and yet it cleans up with water.

The volume decides and is told from the code

The same shade is sold in two sizes, distinguished only by the suffix of the code. This is the 30 ml under the code VMS.PR10S; the 100 ml is listed by the manufacturer under the code VMS.PR10. The S suffix means the smaller, thirty-milliliter bottle, and the code without it the hundred-milliliter one. The smaller pays off for one or two models, the larger when spraying whole batches. The Dark Yellow shade is recommended by the manufacturer under German machines and light vehicles of the Second World War. No RAL or FS standard number is given for it.

Use

• it holds on plastic, resin, metal and 3D prints alike
• it is sprayed unthinned, with a 0.2 to 0.4 mm nozzle, at 20 to 40 PSI (30 is best)
• it dries in 20 to 40 minutes, under forced air in less than three minutes; it can be overpainted after about two hours
• it cleans up with tap water, is odorless and tolerates polystyrene too

Who it is for

For modelers who spray with an airbrush and want an undercoat without a solvent smell, but with a firm hold under masking tape. Shake the bottle thoroughly before use and spray in thin coats.

The paint is supplied in the package in the volume stated. The thinner and tools are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
